Villa Ambrosia definitely delights the senses with its pleasing mixture of stunning scenery, fragrant gardens, and historical relevance. It can accommodate up to 32 people.
Set in a lovely area just outside of Lucca, the villa enjoys soothing views of rolling hillsides and is surrounded by olive groves and vineyards. Once a 17th century convent inhabited by Cappucini monks, the villa has been recently painstakingly restored and renovated back to its Tuscan glory. Beautiful, old frescoes, wood beamed ceilings, and hand-made tiles now complement the modern amenities installed by the present owners. With a fully-equipped professional kitchen, seating for up to 20 guests, and a garden house, Villa Ambrosia is the perfect venue for weddings, banquets, conferences, and meetings. The garden has been brought back to its original design of giardino al’Italiana and is now full of flowers and lemon pots. The large pool, surrounded by cascades of roses, welcomes the guests to relax and enjoy the surroundings. The pool area is furnished with large sun umbrellas, deck chairs, sun beds, and a table with chairs for al fresco dining.
The separate Garden House (100 sqm) is organized for weddings, banquets, and meetings. With tables and chairs, and movable walls, the area can be divided into 4 rooms.
